Anyone captured after this proverb

 Anyone captured after this, as will surely be the case, will not be so lucky. These oil workers will soon understand that they don't stand a chance relying on the promises of safety by the Nigerian government and military.

 That the Nigerian military has been preparing for weeks only for their incompetence to be revealed in mere minutes is enough warning to oil companies and their workers that they stand no chance against any of our units in the event of an attack.

 Everybody needs to understand: the safety of our clients, the safety of our community and the safety of the workers is the most important thing to us. The disappointment is secondary.

 This is bigger than just Shell. The challenge for the Nigerian government and the military is to bring this under control without making the situation worse. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention.

 We can now confirm reports that three American oil workers have been taken hostage in Nigeria. We call for their unconditional release and are working with the Nigerian government on this.

 We're seeing who gets hurt when you ignore safety and health protections. Contractors are hiring immigrant workers right here in Houston and taking them to New Orleans to do cleanup. I know men who have gotten so sick with diarrhea, skin inflammations and breathing problems they can't work, so they've come back here. The contractors just hire more. Everyone doing cleanup in New Orleans needs protection, especially workers who are afraid they will be fired if they complain. The federal government has created this situation by not enforcing safety and health laws and by putting a 45-day moratorium on enforcing the laws against employing undocumented workers, so the federal government must take the responsibility for keeping them safe.

 We cannot stand idly by, tied to a past that promises only further decline for construction workers.

 The reduced support for the government is surely a warning that the government must heed. And the warning is that you cannot break your promises,

 The places where it's really going to hit is government and teachers. Governments are going to be unable to pay for the promises they've made. Pensions for teachers and government workers just dwarf what we see in the private sector.

 By our actions today we keep the memory of the brave triangle workers alive, but also we use it, to make sure that we help to ensure the health and safety of future generations of American workers, understanding that they have many enemies these days?and if we do not stand together we'll find ourselves moving back in history.

 I'm going to stand up among a bunch of elected governors and say, 'Are we going to allow the military without a shot being fired to effectively do an end-run coup on civilian government? Are we going to allow that?' ... We're going to have a little civics lesson for some leaders who are apparently out of touch in the military.

 A billion dollars a year is a lot of money. You can't move that kind of oil out to the high seas without some pretty significant, high-level cooperation in the Nigerian government and the military.

 [A tribunal in Birmingham has ruled in favour of former MG Rover workers still waiting for their full payouts following the company's collapse in April. The eight weeks' pay for all 5,000 who lost their jobs is worth around 14 million and will be paid by the government. The Transport and General Workers Union launched the employment tribunal case on behalf of the workers.] Workers and their families should not have been kept waiting, ... Payment now should be speedy to prevent further hardship.

 an opportunity for Nigerian civic society, an opportunity for the Nigerian military, and an opportunity for the international community.
  Wole Soyinka

 I will stand sentry to support Medicare. I will stand sentry to make sure the promises made are promises kept.
